In this task, we will install DokuWiki. DokuWiki is a simple to use and highly versatile Open Source wiki software. We will use helm to deploy it and expose it to the Internet using Ingress kubernetes object.
To install a chart, you can run the helm install command. Helm has several
ways to find and install a chart, but the easiest is to use one of the official
stable charts.
In the example below stable/dokuwiki chart will be installed, and the name of
our new release is my-wiki.
helm repo add stable https://kubernetes-charts.storage.googleapis.comhelm install my-wiki stable/dokuwikiThis command created the objects and send them to k8s and the output describes, which objects were created and show some basic information about the installation.
